When to Consider This Package

Adopt this package when building applications involving monetary transactions, multi-currency support, or strict financial accuracy requirements. Ideal for e-commerce, fintech, and accounting systems using domain-driven design. Avoid if the project has no monetary calculations, uses a non-PHP stack, or requires specialized currency handling outside ISO standards (e.g., custom cryptocurrencies).
